“When my husband promised he’d make me his wife five years ago, I thought to myself: ‘I’ve heard that line before’. When he finally asked for my hand in marriage and sent his uncles to negotiate lobola in 2019, I thought: ‘Okay, this could really end in happiness’. But when he and his uncles came back again last week to rightfully claim his wife and their makoti, I thought: ‘My king, my baby love, my nunus, my soulmate has really kept his word and did right by me after every heartbreak, setback and evil we’ve had to fight against together!’,” wrote Asanda.

On the second day, she left her home for her husband’s home.

“Leaving my mother’s house this day, I swear on my mother’s grave, on God, in Jesus Name that I will build my home and carry my cross kowam umtshato. And no human being and unholy assignments shall turn me backwards,” she wrote.

Then on the third day, Asanda was given her new clothes as umakoti, as well as a new name.

“Day 3: Last day. This date was changed so many times. My husband and I were both starting to doubt if it’ll ever happen. But what God puts in place, no man can ever remove or change. What is meant to be, no one and nothing can stop. My soulmate and I were finally blessed with what we’ve wanted the most for years, and it could not have been possible without our Lord,” she wrote.

Her followers congratulated her on becoming Mrs Mandindi.

Always keeping fans entertained, Mmola has portrayed the character of ‘Celia’ impeccably,” reads the statement.

The channel said she will be missed by fellow cast members, crew members and viewers watching at home. “We wish her well and all the best with her future ventures,” concluded.

Fans took to the comments section to express their heartbreaks at her sudden departure from the show. Shoki’s on-screen daughter Rachel Kunutu by fan-favourite Lesego Marakalla left the show in 2020.

‘I don’t go to funerals of people who commit suicides’: Julius Malema on Riky Rick’s death

‘I don’t go to funerals of people who commit suicides’: Julius Malema on Riky Rick’s death

Mzansi hip-hop community is still mourning rapper Riky Rick following his passing on 23 February. The rapper passed away at his Johannesburg north home after taking his life. Several of the Boss Zonke hitmaker’s colleagues and closest friends attended his funeral but one political figure chose not to attend.

Speaking on Tbo Touch’s radio show on Friday 24 June, Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema said he did not attend Riky Rick’s funeral because he “does not agree” with people who take their own lives.

On 24 June, Julius Malema joined Tbo Toch on his Metro FM radio show, The Touchdown, to chat about his life as a young boy, his political career and a few other social issues affecting the country. Malema also surprised listeners with a DJ mix.

The politician told Tbo Touch that he does not attend funerals of those who take their own lives, adding that he believed that Riky Rick could’ve reached out for help before his untimely passing.
“If we are going to resort to that, then our children will no longer speak to us. We will just wake up in the morning [and] they’ve committed suicide. You must speak!” said Malema.

“We need to encourage our people to speak. You will become a laughing stock for that time but a solution will be found. There’s always a solution.”

“Killing yourself is not a solution,” he continued.

Tweeps were not pleased with Julius Malema’s explanation about why he did not attend Riky Rick’s funeral. Many slammed the politician for his views on the late rapper’s mental health issues.
